“1989 cheverolet Corsica silver/gray paint is peeling and chipping off. I know it is not a safety issue, but I have seen other similar complaints and was wondering if you had information regarding any solutions to this problem.”

NHTSA complaint #10038700, filed 2003-09

“I know this is not a safety defect, but maybe you can help or lead me in the right direction. My car is gray and it is peeling bad. I think that it should be a recall because my car is not the only Chevrolet painted gray that I've seen was peeling. It's really bad on top of my car where the dew of the morning time makes go down my back windshield making hard to see out of. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, melissa ann gullett”

“While driving about 5 MPH the engine check light came and stayed on, and vehicle cut off. The consumer had to use the brake pedal and the gas pedal at the same time in order for the vehicle to stop cutting off until the cosumer got to the dealer, the dealer replaced two parts after determining the problem was within the electrical computer department.”
